Two more examples of the "puffy" hand vase - this time in interesting neutral tones of beige & grey opaque glass.
The beige one measures 22.5 cm tall, 9 cm across the double crimped top rim, & 8 cm across the base. This one was purchased in 2003, after a friend told me his mother owned a hand vase & sent me a photo of it - so I promptly made a very long train journey to buy it from her.
The grey one measures 21.5 cm tall, 10.5 cm across the four - way crimped top rim, & 8 cm across the base.
Bohemian origin.
